Can I suggest that this invite be put up on the Bengali village pump and a small write up be shared to invite local media? Let me know if you need any help on the media write up. I'd be happy to help and I'm sure the Chapter's Media & PR group would too!

I've also shared the meetup link on a facebook group page, "The Bong Connection" which has thousands of members, most hailing from Kolkata. I hope to feed more info into this channel, Jayanta da, I have sent you the link in your fb page, please do join this, its a good platform for outreach. They have photocontests every month also, maybe we can ask them to release those under CC-SA also. It also has members, i.e. Bongs from across the world, I see it may be a major platform to encourage Bengali Wikipedia participation.
Many many thanks Debanjan!
No issues, always happy to help in any small or large way I can. :)
